The reference human genome sequence is a powerful tool for research. However; portions of the sequence remain incorrect or missing. Also; ethnically diverse genome sequence data from several individuals will be added so that the reference genome sequence will be more useful for a broader number of experimental and clinical applications. In addition to remedying these problems; we will also provide community training.
